Default 98 z28 grind

I recently bought a 98 z28.. during the test drive it shifted smooth..

while driving it home i gave it a little gas and shifted from 3-4 swiftly and it scratched. It dosent actually grind, it just scratches. It happens every one in a while. I havent tested it to be sure, but i think most of all the gears will scratch if i shift too fast. What could be wrong?

Bled and then rebled the hydraulics 3 times.. one large air bubble came up, but the problem still lies. Grinds in every gear, but only when shifting fast. Any ideas?
